The town is currently considering renewing their Bid with incinerating company- Covanta.
But certain groups like the Assateague Coastal Trust and Energy Justice Network believe the proposed contract would hurt people and the planet.
That’s why they are hosting an info session over zoom on how the town could end the trash incineration program. They plan on hosting a zoom informational lecture on the problems with Ocean City’s current trash disposal that they say negatively affects both the town, and Chester Pennsylvania where the trash is burned and then recycled.
They say with the shifting price of certain plastics, it would save the town more money to traditionally recycle, rather than burn the plastic at the Covanta plant and then recycle the metals that are leftover.
